Check the Pigment Sale page for current items and prices. Links checked 12/12/13

Below are the pigments that are available for purchase and this is a complete list minus the

afore-mentioned Anna's Art Asylum pigments and my SpectraFlair. As I can use my glitters and flakes for things outside of polish making, I have decided not to include these either. Most of these pigments can still be purchased by the ounce or sample from the original companies- TKB Trading, The Conservatorie and Coastal Scents but some are discontinued and this is noted below as it applies.

I intend to make a small profit, not take a loss, but my prices will be based on what I paid originally, not what these pigments go for currently. I plan on shipping via the Postal Service, a cheaper method whereas all three pigment companies usually ship Fed Ex or UPS. This means you save on shipping if you bought from me versus if you decided to buy directly from any of them. I will also state that I am a bargain hunter to the core and so those materials I choose to package and ship with will not become a huge cost for you to absorb. The baggies I will probably use to package individual pigments in would add roughly $0.10 each, the same as what I will pay for them. If I find them cheaper, the savings, however small, will be passed on to you. The same will be true for the envelopes/bubble mailers.

While I cannot use the Postal Service's shipping calculator without a destination zipcode and an approximate package weight to estimate a shipping charge, I am guessing based on prior smaller packages I've mailed that it may be around $4.00-$5.00 but that had included delivery confirmation and insurance which are optional services from the Postal Service.

All payments will go through PayPal.

Over the course of the day, I'll be going through this list and adding links to the swatches on my blog (you can find these now by using the tags or doing a search on this blog), whether they are interference or duochrome pigments. After that I'll be working on individual prices. so please check back. -MK
